Jamal Shead’s Offensive Struggle | Toronto Raptors News

Jamal Shead’s sophomore season with the Raptors was a leap in responsibility, stepping up as the main backup point guard behind Immanuel Quickley and even starting playoff games. He dazzled as a playmaker, averaging over five assists per game, and held his own defensively—but scoring remained a glaring weakness. His shooting efficiency plummeted last year, especially from inside the paint, despite maintaining a solid 32% from three. With the Raptors adding depth at forward but still thin at guard, Shead could be asked to shoulder more offensive duties if Quickley misses time. To meet the team’s higher expectations, he must improve his shot-making if he’s to be a reliable contributor in Year 3.
